5.00We had the chance to have a great day trip to Bohol with Ecotravel. On the program: visit the tarsier sanctuary, discover a local market in Carmen with tastings of Filipino hot chocolate, local pastries and coconut, then head to the famous Chocolate Hills. We also had lunch in an excellent restaurant offering delicious local cuisine. Many thanks to Laurent, our guide, who was extremely pleasant and attentive throughout the day. He was passionate about sharing local culture, making this experience even more enriching. An excursion that we highly recommend!

5.00Great day back to nature. Laurent, our guide was very available and very kind. He met all our expectations and even beyond, in these explanations. Great shared moments, with the discovery of tarsiers in their cabin, chocolate hill, alternating with swimming in waterfalls or river. Immersive experiences with a visit to a local market, a small dance show and folk songs during the river walk. The meal in a superb setting and delicious local food. Thank you Laurent and the whole team. I recommend this very rich and immersive day.
Absolute must do in Bohol!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

5.00We are a couple from Manchester, UK, and we cannot recommend this full-day Bohol tour highly enough – it was genuinely one of the best organised and most enjoyable excursions we’ve ever done. From the moment Dave, our brilliant tour guide, met us with a big smile and a friendly “magandang umaga”, we knew we were in safe, expert hands. Dave was an absolute star. His knowledge of Bohol’s history, culture and nature is second to none, but what really made the day special was how he brought everything to life with warmth and humour. At the Chocolate Hills he explained the geology in such an engaging way that we actually understood it, then gave us plenty of time for photos without rushing us. At the tarsier sanctuary he made sure we saw the tarsiers responsibly and shared lovely stories about the conservation work there – we felt like we were learning with a friend rather than just ticking off a list. Our driver Paul was equally fantastic. The roads can be winding, yet he drove smoothly and safely all day, always pointing out little local gems along the way. The air-conditioned van was spotless and comfortable, and both Dave and Paul went out of their way to make sure we had water, snacks, and anything else we needed. The highlight for us was the Loboc river cruise lunch. The food was fresh, plentiful and absolutely delicious (the lechon was a treat!), and gliding along the Loboc River with the jungle on either side felt like pure magic. Dave joined us on the boat and the relaxed chat made it feel even more special. Everything ran like clockwork from pick-up to drop-off. Five-star service, five-star experience from start to finish. If you’re visiting Bohol, book this tour – you won’t regret it for a second. We’d happily do it all over again tomorrow! Thank you Dave and Paul – you made our Philippine holiday unforgettable. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best Tour in Bohol!

5.00Our family had an absolutely unforgettable experience with Bohol Ecotours, and we can't recommend them enough. We were a large group spanning three generations — from a 3-year-old to a 75-year-old — and our guide Dolly made the entire day seamless and enjoyable for every single one of us, no matter our age or activity level. Dolly is simply outstanding. Funny, warm, and incredibly knowledgeable, she brought Bohol to life in a way that kept everyone engaged and entertained throughout the day. It was clear she has deep roots in the community — everywhere we went, she knew the locals! We hit all the best stops, including an incredible waterfall, and lunch on the Luboc river. We left feeling like we'd truly experienced the island, not just seen it. A shoutout is also due to our driver Harvey, who was fantastic. If you're visiting Bohol, book this tour and ask for Dolly and Harvey — you won't regret it
We had a great tour &...

5.00This was hands down one of the best excursions I’ve ever experienced , all thanks to Novie and EcoTours! From the moment she picked us up, Novie’s energy set the tone for an incredible day. She shared fascinating history about Bohol and the Philippines, answered all of our questions, and kept the ride fun and engaging the entire time. Our first stop at the historic church and museum gave us meaningful cultural insight, followed by visits to the breathtaking Chocolate Hills, the Tarsier Forest, and the waterfalls , each more beautiful than the last. One thing I truly appreciated was that Novie and her crew took photos and videos for us throughout the day, so we never had to worry about capturing the perfect shot. We could just enjoy the experience. We also stopped at a local house to try homemade coconut wine, which was such a unique and authentic touch! The Loboc River cruise was another highlight , the food was amazing, the views were gorgeous, and dancing with the traditional performers made it even more special. And to top it all off, we ended the day with karaoke in the van on the ride back — the perfect, fun finale to an already unforgettable experience. This excursion exceeded my expectations and was worth every penny. I would absolutely recommend Novie and EcoTours to anyone visiting Bohol!
A great guide

5.00A great outing, everyone was great, and I want to make special mention of our guide Janice, she is the best, she was at all times watching that we were okay, even she spoke English and we Spanish and she was all the time translating so we knew what she said. Just great.
Highly recommended tour

5.00The tour was great. We visited all the scheduled stages without running and without waiting. The stop at the falls was the icing on the cake because it gave us the opportunity to cool off and enjoy a beautiful landscape in the heart of nature. Special thanks to our very kind guide BOYEE and driver HARVEY. Highly recommended tour!
Very nice experience!

5.00A very nice experience with Frony (sorry, I don't know if the writing is good anymore). He explained everything and was very kind. We have been to Tarsier Sanctuary, Chocolate Hills, Pangas Falls, local market and other stops. That was fabulous!
Enough done and seen without rushing

4.00The private tour is relaxed, without rushing and will take you to the tourist attractions but without the crowds of a group. The tour guide arrived at the hotel in time for the pick-up. The car was clean and comfortable. The day program is varied so the day flies by. Our tour guide spoke very good English and could tell a lot. We recommend the day tour. As a tip we give to bring your own bottles of drinks because that was minimal. If you do the additional ATV tour along the way, keep in mind that you can get really dirty. Bringing a clean set of clothes and old shoes is not a luxury.
